Are you considering to cancel your Allianz Life Insurance policy? If yes, you are at the right place. We know that cancelling an insurance policy can be complicated. Which is why, we have made a step-by-step easy guide on what you will need to do. Here are the steps you can take in order to cancel your Allianz Life Insurance policy.

Step 1: Find out your refund/surrender value

It is important to contact Allianz directly, so that you do not loose money or anytime when you go through an insurance agent. Even a delay of one day can cost you a lot of money. Contact the customer service department of Allianz and state your intent to cancel your policy.

Depending on how soon you cancel your contract, you can expect to receive different amounts back.

If you cancel within 15 days of sign-up:

  • Check with the insurance company if your policy is still within 15 days of sign-up. If yes, you can expect a full refund of the money you have paid so far.

If you cancel after 15 days of sign-up:

  • You can still cancel, however you will not receive a full refund of the premium you have paid.

In addition, if your policy has been already been for more than 1 year, you can expect a refund which is called “surrender value”. If it is less than 1 year, you might have little or no surrender value at all.

Step 3: Ensure that your cancellation is processed.

Once Allianz has received your formal letter, the company will acknowledge your cancellation request.
